Thanksgiving ’09 December 2, 2009

We enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner with Robb’s mom this year. There was so much food, it wouldn’t fit on the table! Bowls of food had to rotate onto the countertop.

The Beloved Dog

Brooklyn loved playing with the dog over the weekend. She and Gidget got to be pretty good friends! Every time we turned around, she was holding the dog again.

Hard as a Brick Bat

Quinn wanted to use his huge muscles to scoop some ice cream for Brooklyn. This tub had been in the deep freeze, and was “hard as a brick bat,” as Cheryl describes it. Those scoops were pretty thin and pathetic.

Strategizing...

Ryan and Quinn are playing chess here. It is not an uncommon scene. Ryan loves to play chess and he is getting pretty good at it.

All in all, we had a wonderful weekend, playing games, watching movies, and eating pie. How can you go wrong?

Robb and I were married in December 1995. Three kids and 19 years later... we have a home in the suburbs, and we love being near our family on both sides. Keep up with our successes and failures, our struggles and triumphs, and the joy of raising our children on this little blog.
